Line 1:

We could forge better '''external collaboration''' with the purely education-oriented sites like [https://math.stackexchange.com/ math.stackexchange], and the education-oriented subreddits, like [https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/ /r/askscience/] and [https://www.reddit.com/r/askscience/wiki/subreddit_links related] - perhaps write them some quick guides for both finding good information in our sites, and assisting participation in our sites (and vice versa), so that we can hook /r/fashion/ together with WikiProject Fashion, and /r/chemicalreactiongifs/ with WikiProject Chemistry and Commons, and etc, in both directions. They're highly-active locations, filled with smart and helpful people. We could be helping and mingling with each other more. Not all of us, but some of us, more easily. More interconnected-web, less gated-community. Looser boundaries, and more informal pathways.
